Mechanical, Maintenance & Reliability · 5 Days · Public · Al-Khobraa certified · From USD 3,900
Overview
This five-day course presents a systematic approach to fault diagnosis and failure prevention in a broad range of machinery used in the Oil/Gas, Petrochemical and other process industries. The key approaches to preventive maintenance are demonstrated through both overview and the study of examples in metallurgical failure analysis, vibration analysis and a sequential approach to machinery troubleshooting and problem-solving.
Learning Objectives
Execute system approach of failure analysis and troubleshooting and identify the causes of machinery failure and their contributing factors which are often overlooked
Gain an in-depth knowledge on metallurgical failure analysis methodology as illustrated by failure analysis of bolted joints and shafts
Perform machinery component analysis and reliability improvement by recognizing redesigned opportunities, bearings in distress, coupling failure avoidance opportunities and mechanical seal problems
Develop an understanding of continuous reliability improvement and the various approaches to optimized lubrication for pumps and electric motors
Apply and gain an understanding on vendor selection and reliability review methods through centrifugal pump selection & compressor reliability review examples and perform troubleshooting of pumps and centrifugal compressors
Recognize the application of vibration analysis from a management perspective by studying specific machinery problems, as well as monitoring and analysis methods
Identify and carry out a structured problem-solving sequence after careful perusal of problem-solving elements, cause analysis, action generation, decision making and planning for change
Perform formalized failure reporting using actual cases such as high-speed pump and bearing failures
Determine the process of examination of failed components such as bearings, gears, mechanical seals and others
List the elements of centrifugal pump failure reduction programs taking into account the process and the mechanical & technical interactions
Double the productivity of their maintenance employees, and
Reduce their total maintenance cost by up to 30%
Develop and implement a sustainable world-class maintenance strategy
Perform a systematic Root Cause Failure Analysis
Develop an improved understanding of numerous maintenance environment variables, and of the relationships between them
Optimize these relationships in line with the TRIZ contradiction principle
Understand, audit and optimize your maintenance process
Apply and gain in-depth knowledge on safety root cause analysis
Identify the common causes of incidents and enumerate the different various types of accidents to investigate
Determine the link between investigation and risk assessment and acquire knowledge on how to predict possible incidents using reactive and proactive methods
Discuss the framework for incident investigation and analysis such as the relationship between the accidents and incidents, link between reactive and pro-active, management system failure and root causes for accidents
Employ the root cause analysis (RCA) techniques and differentiate between cause tree analysis (CTA) and fault tree analysis (FTA)
Implement the principle stages of an accident investigation on planning and how to counteract investigator bias and mindset
Apply structured data collection such as getting information, preparing incident report and statement from the incident scene
Carry out investigating, interviewing, and storyboarding using the latest techniques for incident investigations
Practice the latest incident investigation procedures, forms, and documentation through practical exercises, application-based case studies, and workshops designed to reflect and employ the root cause analysis (RTA)
Understand the use and application of generic problem-solving techniques
Cascade the principles and benefits of the program to other employees

What do Al-Khobraa mechanical, maintenance and reliability courses cover?
The portfolio covers reliability-centred maintenance (RCM), preventive and predictive maintenance, condition monitoring and vibration analysis, root cause failure analysis, rotating and static equipment, asset management and maintenance planning — including preparation for the CMRP (Certified Maintenance & Reliability Professional) credential.
Who should attend a mechanical, maintenance or reliability course?
These courses suit maintenance and reliability engineers, maintenance planners and schedulers, mechanical and rotating-equipment technicians and supervisors, condition-monitoring analysts, asset and plant managers, and operations staff accountable for equipment availability.
How long are mechanical, maintenance and reliability courses, and where are they held?
Most Al-Khobraa mechanical, maintenance and reliability courses run over 5 days. The exact duration, dates and city for this course are listed in the dates section on this page. Public sessions run across Saudi Arabia — Riyadh, Jeddah, Al-Khobar, Jubail and Yanbu — as well as regional and international venues, with live virtual classrooms available on request.
What certificate will I receive?
Delegates who complete the course receive an Al-Khobraa certificate of completion, issued by a Saudi-registered training provider. Al-Khobraa also delivers internationally accredited programmes; where a course carries an external awarding body such as PMI, CIPS, ILM or IOSH, that body is named on the course's own page.
Can mechanical, maintenance and reliability training be delivered in-house for our team?
Yes. Any Al-Khobraa mechanical, maintenance and reliability course can be delivered in-house at your own premises anywhere in Saudi Arabia or the GCC, with the content, dates and language of delivery tailored to your team. Al-Khobraa is an approved HRDF (Hadaf) provider, so eligible Saudi employers can seek training support. Contact us for a quotation.
